Call me a customer with money to spend, but I would really like the whole trilogy on Linux.

I am with Hamish on this one. Companies like Frozenbyte and Playdead that put what is seemingly considered above and beyond extraordinary effort for their ancient games may have my money, whereas the others may not. Simple.

How difficult would it be for GOG to get the Linux rights for Warsow [External Link]? It's available in practically every distribution's package manager.

It looks less uniform now. :'(

Quoting: BOYSSSSSIf they are going to place an analog stick anyway they should make something like this.

They shouldn't remove the d-pad, it's easier to change weapons or choose items with it don't you think?

Holy smokes, that's ugly!

Registered, thanked, and given a REDpoint. More people need to get behind this, much like with the request to make Galaxy open source.

Quoting: tuubi

Quoting: FutureSutureI wish the aforementioned wishlist items would get as many votes as this editorial is getting views...

You need a GOG account to vote. Sure, signing up is free, but that's often reason enough for people not to bother.

At the same time, how many Linux users will be getting an account anyway once GOG launches Linux support later this year? Lethargy is no excuse here!

Quoting: ShmerlFor example if GOG open the client, they'll have to deal with bug reports, pull requests (i.e. features and fixes requested to be added to the code) and so on. While normally that's very useful, to actually handle all that, GOG will have to allocate resources (i.e. people, time etc.). I'd say it's worth doing, but GOG can think it's just an extra burden.

I was thinking that, but at the same time, GOG will have to allocate resources to Galaxy anyway, so the people maintaining Galaxy can handle that. What's more, having additional capable hands working for free would surely negate any added load as well.

Quoting: ShmerlI think more than governance, the overhead of running the open source project can be an issue, especially if GOG never did it before.

Can you provide more detail? What overhead?

It's not open source, that's the whole point of this piece.
